New Delhi: BJP leader Kapil Mishra on Sunday launched a scathing attack on the Arvind Kejriwal government as huge numbers of migrants left the city.

Calling it a planned conspiracy, Mishra shared a video clip claiming that Delhi government had made an announcement in the night in migrant settlements telling people that buses were plying to Anand Vihar and from there onwards people can get a bus to UP or Bihar.

Mishra also claimed that sleeping people were picked up by the Delhi government and sent to the border.

On Saturday, BJP attacked the AAP government alleging that some forces want India to fail when it is fighting the coronavirus.

'Some forces want India to fail when India fights corona'

"Migrant workers tell on camera that they were told that buses will be there at Anand Vihar. DTC buses drop them to Anand Vihar. Some forces want India to fail when India fights corona. Nation will not forgive them," BJP general secretary (organisation) B L Santhosh said.

Tamilnadu border is only 36 Kms from Bengaluru .. Andhra is less than 100 Kms from Chennai . No migrant labourers exodus . Why only from Delhi ..? Something amiss here . Is somebody playing mischief ..? Very purpose of #LockDown is getting defeated . #IndiaFightsCorona

Santhosh further said that the National Capital Region has more than 100 positive cases and it is a 'health red zone" and still about half-a-lakh migrant workers are being "encouraged" to move out without being given shelter and food.

It is a criminal act, he said.

'Arvind Kejriwal has left migrants to their fate in this crisis'

Lashing out at Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, BJP's Amit Malviya tweeted that he had won the Delhi assembly elections on the support of these migrants by “deceiving” them in the name of free water and electricity but has now left them to their fate in this crisis.

Meanwhile, the Ghaziabad administration has pressed 450 buses into service to transport migrants from Bihar who are trying to reach their homes amid a country-wide lockdown to check the spread of coronavirus, officials said. Ghaziabad District Magistrate Ajay Shankar Pandey told PTI that the migrants who were passing through the district were asked to stay but many of them were adamant to go back to their villages.
